UN Security Council members, including China, Pakistan, Russia and Algeria, on Friday condemned Israeli attacks on Iran, warning that it threatens regional peace and risk setting a dangerous precedent by targeting nuclear facilities.
Speaking at the emergency session on Iran, which was requested by China, Pakistan, Russia and Algeria, Russian envoy Vassily Nebenzia denounced the attacks and said: "The Iranian, peaceful civilian nuclear facilities continue to be targeted, and this is liable to plunge us into an unseen nuclear catastrophe."
He warned that the Security Council "cannot shirk its responsibility" and must assess the situation objectively.
"Nuclear facilities cannot be targeted by strikes," he added, and demanded that "West Jerusalem immediately cease attacks and raids on Iran."
Nebenzia criticized the West for enabling Israeli aggression, stating that rhetoric from British, French and German diplomats "is just as dangerous as the deadliest weaponry."
"Russia views the ongoing, intense Israeli attacks targeting civilian objects in Iran as completely unacceptable and unlawful under international law," he said.
Chinese envoy Fu Cong said that Israel's actions "violate international law and the norms of international relations, jeopardize the sovereignty and security of Iran, and undermine regional peace and stability."

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Par for the course.
“Nuclear facilities cannot be targeted by strikes”
Apparently they can.
But hospitals are just fine targets.
Well no wonder China flew THREE cargo planes in the dead of night to Iran..notice after they sent the three planes Iran all of a sudden had more missiles in their arsenal
<< “Russia views the ongoing, intense Israeli attacks targeting civilian objects in Iran as completely unacceptable and unlawful under international law,” >>
That’s rich.
Hmmmmmnmm...... Did the United Nations Security Council condemn the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA) for the UNRWA participation in the Oct 7 attack, AND condemn UNRWA for assisting in holding hostages from that Oct 7 attack?
I pray daily the USA leaves the UN and NATO!!
A badge of honor.
And still nobody cares. 😉
As usual.
We all do.
Confirmation that Israel is doing the right thing.
